Drawing Fahrenheit Temperature

In this activity, students practice drawing mercury levels on thermometers to represent specific Fahrenheit temperatures. Each thermometer is labeled with a temperature value, and students must accurately illustrate where the mercury should rise to match it. This hands-on exercise reinforces knowledge of Fahrenheit temperature scales, precision in drawing proportional levels, and understanding the relationship between numerical data and visual representation. It promotes active engagement and measurement literacy.
